Raloy RW119-S801 (1U Rackmount LCD KVM Console / 8-Port / VGA / PS2-USB / from $1,394.00) Review
Raloy RW119-S801 1U rackmount 8-port LCD KVM console drawer VGA PS/2 USB data center switch
A folding 1U rack drawer that hides a full keyboard, trackpad, and LCD monitor behind a slide rail, with an 8-port VGA/PS2-USB switch built into the back panel so one console can service eight servers without eating floor space.
Overview
The RW119-S801 pairs Raloy's folding LCD/keyboard drawer with an 8-port analog KVM switch on the rear I/O panel. Admins press front-panel buttons or use OSD hotkeys to cycle through connected servers, and the drawer collapses flush into a 1U rack slot when not in use, which matters in colocation racks billed by the U.
Rack Integration
Because the console and switch ship as one chassis, there is no separate console unit to rack and cable — a single power input and eight VGA/PS2-USB combo cables run to the servers. This suits legacy server rooms where 4K or IP access isn't required, just a reliable local console for maintenance windows.
Comparison to Alternatives
Against ATEN's CS1308KIT, which is a cable-based 8-port switch that still needs a separate monitor/keyboard, the RW119-S801 saves rack space by integrating the console — at a materially higher price. For sites that need remote IP access rather than local-only switching, ATEN's KN1108v or KN1116VA are the better fit since the Raloy unit has no network interface.
